Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for identifying, quantifying, and reducing wasted resources in software testing. In use, a first duration of time over which at least one software testing environment was not available for at least one first software testing project is determined. At least one wasted resource amount associated with the first software testing project is calculated, the wasted resource amount resulting from the software testing environment not being available during the first duration of time. A potential saving in software testing effort associated with this project and/or at least one second software testing project is automatically calculated, based, at least partially, on the cause of the unavailability of the testing environment, on the determined first duration of time and the calculated wasted resource amount, the potential saving being achievable by making the software testing environment available for the second software testing project.
